Status problem by yoyogu on 07-22-2006 at 02:44 PM

Hey guys!

I was wondering for my wlm, people see me as appear offline but i'm really online. Any idea how to fix this?


RE: Status problem by Chris4 on 07-22-2006 at 03:11 PM

Have you tried appearing offline then online? This usually fixes that problem.


RE: Status problem by yoyogu on 07-22-2006 at 03:14 PM

Tried that, my secondary account works on wlm though


RE: Status problem by Chris4 on 07-22-2006 at 03:14 PM

Does this happen every time you log on?


RE: Status problem by yoyogu on 07-22-2006 at 03:19 PM

Just started yesterday. I can usually fix the problem by restarting but it doesnt help anymore.


RE: Status problem by Chris4 on 07-22-2006 at 03:21 PM

Have you installed anything recently that might have made this happen?

Could be related to Connection Error

I've experienced this problem too! It was extremely annoying!

But somehow, after a while, it just stopped. It did go on for a while, sometimes intermitant, sometimes only certain contacts could see me online, others saw me as offline.

I can't actualy remember what I did to solve the problem, if anything... As you say, other accounts work perfectly (as perfect as they can be with WLM anyway), but I think it might have gone on too long to bare and I re-installed
OR
I used the repair feature when you go to uninstall?
Hope it helps!? (Y)

That some times happen to me but it's been a while since the last time I had that error but usually it gets fixed by telling your contact that sees you offline to close and open his MSN or WLM

Hey, i have this problem two, nobody is seeing me online. When im using my second account it all works fine.

I used a couple MSN versions on a few computers butt non showed me online today on my main account :angry:

Had this problem to... I thought it was a Yahoo Interop specific thing first, because it happened with an Yahoo address for me... but looks like it's a general WLM server issue.

Let the person(s) who see your status wrong log out and back in. That fixed it for me. But I can imagine it's a bit much to tell everyone who is online on your contactlist to reconnect. The Messenger servers are having so many problems last couple of weeks :(.
